To determine if 1934 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1934.
If the factors of 1934 are only 1934 and 1, then we know that 1934 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1934 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1934 is only divisible by 1 and 1934, then it is a prime number, and if 1934 is divisible by more than 1934 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1934 are as follows:
1, 2, 967, 1934
Therefore, since 1934 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1934 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
